Look at him go. Looks good doesnt he. All suited and booted. The living lick. He certainly fits the profile of the successful man about town. And so he should that profile has cost him plenty.
The Times says that image-conscious men in the City are spending their money on cosmetic surgery.
The Harley Street Medical Group says demand for body tailoring is rooted in a mans desire to look good in the gym and the boardroom.
Tammy Campbell, clinic manager of the groups City clinic, explains. Most of the patients we see are very bothered about stubborn fat on their stomach and flanks, and say that they feel terribly self-conscious and uncomfortable in the gym, and that is their main motivation for surgery.
And Adrian Richards, a consultant plastic surgeon who specialises in facelifts, says theres pressure to look youthful at work.
Fair enough. But since both the gym and boardroom remain bastions of maleness, we wont delve too deeply into what this says about the sexual proclivities of the typical City trader.
